This study was conducted to synthesize foam glass-ceramic using SLS glass as a precursor; eggshell (ES) as a foaming agent and investigated the effect of sintering temperature on the crystal growth, microstructure and mechanical properties of the final product. The samples undergo the sintering proc...
